Sadly, my 95 1/2 year old father passed away the beginning of March 2020. They wanted to code as Covid at the hospital where he did hospice care.
There was a problem with the death certificate. When I called the hospital to find out where the death certificate was, they told me to contact my dad’s doctor.
He pulled the information from the hospital and said that they had coded it as a Covid death.
He asked me for permission to change it as my father passed away from his infirmities, old age, a stroke, five years earlier, he lived a good life.
I do not know if the hospital system was paid more if he died of Covid related complications. However is the death certificate lists Covid as a cause of death FEMA would reimburse the family for funeral expenses under “Disaster 4485”. Call FEMA 844-684-6333 for details !!
The Doctor had to ask you if he could tell the truth?
A friend of mine died after being in “Memory Care” for seven months.
The cause was “Covid,” on the death certificate.
He never had covid.
Many Doctors and Hospitals lied for the money.
